9th May 2026 Good 3m 0f 41y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Pulled up over 4m here last time (soft); plenty of decent placed efforts in 3m chases before that; has an each-way chance. |

10st 12lb |
Without a win since December 2023 but this consistent sort has finished second at Catterick (3m1f/3m, soft) on his last two starts and ran well over 3m6f there in January 2024; each-way claims. |

11st 10lb |
Moved to this yard last season and won three in a row towards the end of last year (2m4f/3m, good to soft/soft); disappointing subsequently but perhaps a break will have helped and he's down to a handy mark; interesting to see how he goes in the betting. |

11th Jan 2024 Soft 3m 5f 214y Class 3 |
11st 6lb |
Prominent-racer who went very close in the Durham National at Sedgefield (3m5f, soft) on reappearance and again ran well when third at Newcastle (2m7f, heavy) last month; stamina is a strong suit and he's respected. |
4/1 |

3rd 2 |
14th Dec 2023 Heavy 2m 7f 91y Class 4 |
11st 13lb |
Stays further but that may be no bad thing in the conditions and he reappeared with a near-miss in the Durham National (3m5f, soft) in October; ran well in the Eider here in February and he's firmly in calculations. |

11th Jan 2024 Soft 3m 5f 214y Class 3 |
11st 2lb |
Kept on for fair fourth behind Court At Slip at Newcastle (2m7f, heavy) last month and could build on that run now back up in trip, having gone close over 4m at Hexham last March; capable of having a say. |
10/1 |
|
4th 4 |
14th Dec 2023 Heavy 2m 7f 91y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
11yo who was well beaten on his comeback at Carlisle last month but he left last season's reappearance behind to go very close at Kelso (3m2f, heavy) next time, and he's on a competitive mark; blinkers are replaced by cheekpieces (ran well in them earlier in career); not discounted. |

13th Jan 2024 Soft 3m 0f 45y Class 4 |
11st 1lb |
Won in fine style on his chase debut at Newcastle (2m7f, heavy) last April; strong claims if reproducing that form but hasn't been at the same level on his three starts since and needs to raise his game. |
10/1 |
|
5th 5 |
14th Dec 2023 Heavy 2m 7f 91y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Won in fine style on his chase debut over C&D (heavy); he'll be tough to beat if reproducing that form now back here, but he's been well beaten on his two starts since (3m/3m2f, soft) and has to turn things around. |
8/1 |

26th Oct 2023 Good To Soft 3m 2f 34y Class 4 |
11st 5lb |
Point winner who impressed on his chase debut at Newcastle (2m7f, heavy) in April; well beaten at Perth (3m, soft) 13 days later but that run may have come too soon and this lightly raced 8yo retains potential. |

30th Dec 2023 Heavy 3m 0f 58y Class 4 |
11st 13lb |
raced lazily, pushed along soon after start, disputed lead, lost position after 1st, dropped to last after 3rd, lost touch from 4th, tailed off when pulled up after 6th |

14th Dec 2023 Heavy 2m 7f 91y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
More miss than hit over the last 12 months or so but he won at Ffos Las (3m, heavy) in January and returned to form to go very close behind East Street at Wetherby (3m, heavy) last month; key player if again on song. |
7/2 |

29th May 2024 Good 3m 1f 107y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Very useful in his prime but last season's low-grade handicap form for Ben Haslam was uninspiring; made good start for new connections this month, winning Hexham conditions point (soft) by 9l, but this race is much tougher. |
12/1 |

3rd 3 |
16th Mar 2024 Heavy 2m 7f 91y Class 5 |
11st 11lb |
Twice a chase winner over 2m4f, including on heavy; a shadow of his former self these days and plummeting in the handicap; however, would be interesting if the market speaks in his favour. |
12/1 |

6th 3 |
18th Feb 2024 Soft 2m 7f 138y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
Very useful in his prime but has badly lost his way; long absence before his two runs (25-1) this winter; way down the weights and cheekpieces (last worn in March 2022) return, which may well be a positive; worth a check for strength in the betting. |
